Hello,
Unfortunately search by multiple words doesn't work again. Would you like to fix it?

Sheila, statcounter shows many coming from pbase's own search.
I'd continue using them, as those people may comment on your
page and add to the google database that way, not to mention
finding your images.
But you're exactly right that the info ON the page itself
is the most important factor for google searches. I have
sometimes put alternate spellings ini the description box
so that they can be foundThe PBase search engine is inconsistent, sometimes it works and other times it doesn't.

I gave up using keywords because of this. Judging by my tracker, the way buyers find images is through Google searches and occasionally Yahoo. If you can place as much information in the title and description of each image, Google will eventually find it. Goggle will even pick up words in your "comments".

I think the issue is that the keywords, as they don't normally appear in the browser, don't necessarily bear any relationship to the contents of the page and could well be misleading (either intentionally or through carelessness). The idea is that the search results should be related to what you will actually read on the page if you click a link. Therefore they choose to prioritise the actual displayed content.My impression that Google stopped looking at the keywords at some time, because they nowadays tend to take money from web site owners for being put ahead of others.
You said that google would find words from "comments," do you mean the caption?
